| Sleeping Beauty |
| 06.30.04 (9:04 pm) [edit] |
Okay, I am watching the cutest episode ever of Even Stevens...Tawny and Louis are in love! And the last episode of Lizzie was on today too *frantic hand motion* OMH - Danna, I need you to be here, because the only other person here who watches the Disney Channel is ten years old and male. Didn't I forget something that just needed to be flown back to me?
I had a very relaxing day for a soccer mom. The kids basically entertain themselves, so I had time to watch TV, read, and play piano. I could play for hours...soooo relaxing. And then a whirlpool bubble bath - I'm in heaven.
I did do some work today - I had e-mails to write, an application to fill out (very pointless but had to be done) and I'm officially freaking out major (can you tell a Zenon commercial is on?) over choreography. "One" is probably the hardest thing I've ever seen and these people have NO EXPERIENCE. Aka, we'll be starting this one opening night and working it every day, with the hats. And if you don't know what i'm talking about, that's probably a good thing, i'd just talk really fast and confuse you more if you asked.
This beauty is still sleeping, awaiting true love's kiss...
but here are some princess lyrics:
[i]"I know you
I walked with you once upon a dream.
I know you
The gleam in your eyes is so familiar a gleam
Yes, I know it's true
that visions are seldom all they seem
But if I know you, I know what you'll do
You'll love me at once
the way you did once upon a dream"[/i]

| Dreaming of you... |
| 06.29.04 (9:07 pm) [edit] |
Today was fun and I've realized who I want to be when I grow up...Kirsten Cohen. For those of you less devoted fans, she is a character on the OC and manages to have a career, a child, and a hot marriage. With a little less career and a couple more children, I think that is my goal in life.
Basically just living the soccer mom life...baseball practice, movie rentals, and dinner plans. They're so cute though and really good kids.
A little Selena for tonight...
[i]"Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I wish on a star that somewhere you are
thinking of me too
Cause I'm dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
than here in my room dreaming about you and me
Wonder if you ever see me and I
wonder if you know I'm there (am I there, am I?)
If you looked in my eyes would you see what's inside
would you even care?
I just wanna hold you close but so far
all I have are dreams of you
So I wait for the day
to take the courage to say how much I love you
Corazon
No puedo dejar de pensar en ti
Como te necesito
Mi amor, como te extrano" [/i]
Buenas noches ~ Kimberly

| 06.28.04 (9:18 pm) [edit] |
Not feeling so good tonight - maybe it's because my other half is sick from her forgetfulness :( I miss you! Call me, I might answer this time...
I've figured out why I don't like summer. I feel like I'm a visitor at my own house. I don't live here anymore and my family has adjusted. I don't want parenting and I don't have to worry about being responsible for Jason. I can be the cool older sister and not have to worry about parenting consequences. In a way, it's nice, but I feel like Indiana is home and I have another family at Rose that I miss. And it's weird to see them as a family without me, but a good different.
So, completely in contrast to the last paragraph, I had family time with my parents today. It was my day off and I woke up bright and early at one this afternoon, layed outside with mom, ate dinner with my parents, and then went out with them to play minigolf (the solution to all my family's problems). We got ice cream on the way home and mom and I walked back while dad drove. It was a really fun day off. And definitely the best part - the ultimate bubble bath. That's what I miss most at Rose...note to self: get an apartment with a bathtub for junior year.
Okay, as you all know, I am a firm advocate of fashion, cutsiness, and pink. However, I also believe in appropriateness when choosing an outfit. Under no circumstances should you wear a skirt to golf in, even if it is minigolf. I saw a girl wearing the cutest pink skirt, but seriously, to golf? No. Then I saw the most tasteful minigolf date outfit ever - jeans, pink tank top, flower tucked behind the ear. Appropriate and cute - 50 points to her.
My *maybe* assistant choreographer is so awesome, I had to tell y'all about him. His name is Josh and he could be a boy band all by himself - surprise, we get along soooo well. He's a grade younger, so we were ambassadors together for two years and he's such a good dancer. I'm excited and hope it becomes official soon!
Excited about tomorrow, not excited about the decreased amount of sleep for the next few days. But back to Lifetime...I know, I'm obsessed.
Love ~ Kimberly

| Day off! |
| 06.27.04 (9:37 pm) [edit] |
I have a day off - no idea how it happened...and I should choreograph and costume and call my boss. But other than that, no work!
I'm actually getting excited about baby-sitting too. The only hard part will be getting up early, about 8:00 in the morning, but it'll be okay. I hardly have to drive them anywhere, we can eat out (bad for the diet...) and swim at the club. And they're good kids :)
So babysitting from Tuesday until Friday morning, Friday afternoon at dad's office, and a day shift on Saturday, then two days at the lake with the fam, which could get interesting. We all get along better when we don't actually see each other every day, so togetherness is not going to be good for us.
Much love to my sick roomie who has to go to class :( I miss you Beta roomie...and you too Alpha...and when I'm sad, I shop! So call me and tell me to downsize or at least buy something in "our" size so you can profit off my shopping talent.
Danna, do you have anything for that...thing...that I have?...*whimper*
A little SheDaisy (how cute is that name?! and yay girl power! :) )
"I won't be your crutch to lean on
I won't wear stiletto heels
I won't walk a mile in your shoes
Just so I know how it feels ---
I won't be your obligation
I won't be your Barbie doll
I won't be the portrait of perfection
To adorn your wall ---
I won't be your lifetime girlfriend
I won't be just one of the guys
I won't be your mama's favorite
I refuse to be the last in line ---
But I will, I will, I will be your everything
If you make me feel like a woman should
I will, I will, I will be the whole shebang
You know I will"
Funny how five minutes can make a night...I'm still lost in a romance novel...maybe with Blaine, the hot new Australian version of Ken in the Outback ;)
*besos y abrazos*

| Burn out |
| 06.26.04 (9:36 pm) [edit] |
Okay, it's June 26th and I'm burnt out from my summer jobs already. I don't want to do any of them, including choreograph (only because I'm tired and even though I may get a kick-ass assistant), I really don't want to babysit, and I hate mopping with a passion.
There was a half-ass attempt at hanging out with Scott tonight, but no dice. He had no plans, so Jess T and I invited him to Perkins and I made it very clear that I had no plans and my parents were out of town - he wanted to sleep. GRRRRR - I hate boys.
My bro is currently being an illegal little punk - also a good reason to hate boys.
More work tomorrow - 11 to 5 at DQ, then meeting the babysitting parents at 7. So tired...maybe an early bedtime, but probably a lifetime movie.

| 06.25.04 (10:28 pm) [edit] |
OMH - Go see it. It's amazing. And I want that...I want the love story. Even if it was just for a little while, I want to experience a love like that. And really, that's pretty much all I'm thinking tonight...for all you fellow country fans, a little Lila McCann:
"Somewhere out there
Someone else is searchin' like me
And I know he must be hurtin'
Maybe tonight he's walkin' down
The same road I've been takin'
And we'll meet up without even talkin'
And he'll know what I'm sayin' ---
I wanna fall in love
I wanna feel that rush
Runnin' into my heart, shakin' up my soul
Feelin' like I've never felt before
I wanna fall in love
I wanna feel that touch
I've only dreamed about it, I've been livin' without it
And that ain't good enough
I wanna fall in love."
*kisses* ~ Kimberly

| "Whitstle while you work..." |
| 06.25.04 (1:12 pm) [edit] |
Okay, so I'm at work and have been doing actual work for about two hours...wow. Although this is the best job, it's still not that great. And nobody brought snacks today :( But I'm having a Tropical Sprite Remix, so it's all good.
If other people can have toolish entries, I get to have girly entries - sorry boys, fashion barbie day:
This job allows me to be somewhat fashionable, especially compared to the DQ. I'm wearing:
1) The slut-ho blank tank top
2) The magic black v-neck
3) The silver/gray but not pants with the I'm a tie but not belt that is also the weird color but shiny, as are the pocket covers, compared to the relative dullness of the pants themselves.
I am totally in love with this outfit. It says "I'm a sophisticated and classy working girl, yet cute and sexy at the same time, and if I lost the black v-neck could totally go clubbing after work." And the pants rock, not only for the cuteness factor, but because they actually fit my legs - hard to do what with the thinness (I know danna, you hate me), so I can show off without actually showing any leg. Black purse, black shoes, hair down, sans jewelry, sans makeup except black mascara. The shoes are black slides with a little height advantage, which also helps the effect of the pants.
Okay, sorry about that, but when your wardrobe otherwise consists of a DQ uniform and variations of pajamas, fashion fridays are super fun. Now what to wear out tonight...? And I'm so super hungry right now - I wonder if I can order a pizza to the office? Okay, 45 minutes left of work and nothing to do - I can't shop online anymore, at least not until next payday. I will be crafty like C-line and cross-stitch...

| My actual life...aka the boring post |
| 06.24.04 (10:43 pm) [edit] |
Today was boring, as per usual. I woke up at noon, showered (my roomies would be proud), went to the grocery store with my mom, cleaned a bunch of fruit (yum!), and then took a nap. That's right - I woke up at noon and took a nap later. Jason had to work insanely early this morning so mom woke up then to wake him up and then didn't go back to sleep. So they were both tired and crabby and I was like, heck why not?, so it was family nap time at the Miller house. Then a family dinner for the first time in, like ever, and work. The Pan after work, then chatting online.
My life is so predictable. But I'm switching it up tomorrow - a social life! Woohoo! I'm going out for chinese and to see The Notebook with Sammy and Mir, friends from Washington (rival school) that I met through dance. I haven't seen either of them yet this summer, so I'm excited!!!
Also, my roomies are having a roomie love Chicago party, which totally sounds like a good MTV show, but I want to be there to go shopping with them! No dice though - working all weekend :( Leave me one or give me a call - I miss my Rose friends.
Love and hugs ~ Kimberly

| The DQ - episode 5 (?) |
| 06.24.04 (10:37 pm) [edit] |
"She's so lucky, she's a star..."
So I show up to work after a few days off and the shift change happens at five, as per usual. Angel comes up to me as she's leaving and says, "Why didn't you tell me you have such a huge crush on Scott?" Apparently she's totally fine with it and wants me to ask him out. I'm so happy - no girl drama over the boy! However, as previously mentioned, Scott is out of town - AGAIN - so no asking yet.
The subplot...
No one really cares, I'm sure, but Matt has been dating Erin (girl who doesn't work at the store, but practically does cuz she's always there) for a year and a half. Matt works with all girls. Erin is very protective and jealous. Anybody else seeing a problem? Jess S and Matt have this bond thing going on over cars - they're both obsessed. So they're pretty good friends and go shopping for wiring equipment etc. and Erin hates Jess. So we all decided to go to Fryn' Pan tonight and called Matt to invite him, of course he had to check with Erin and then bring her along, which was interesting. I don't think she likes me very much either, but whatev.
We also invited a new girl that we've decided to like, Kelsey, who took my brother to Spinsters (all-sufu Sadie Hawkins dance) and is a little ditzy, but nice. We made of Jason together, always a good time.
More next time on the most fascinating blog soap ever...The DQ.

Blah...I drove Hanna's children all over, shopped a little but didn't find what I wanted so I ordered it online, watched some TV, went to work...Scott was there, he seemed more talkative but of course was going to Verm-town to party for a couple days...Perkins tomorrow night again with the coworkers and Matt's jealous girlfriend
I am in a bad mood, but surprisingly cheery as per usual. People at work are still confused at how I can switch from "I f-ing hate customers - they're such biatches" to "Here's your food and have a good night!" with a smile and in a nice voice. It's kind of like the movie "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days" where everything is upbeat...Danna will understand the reference.
Lyrics to ponder - I <3 the Dixie Chicks>
"I wanna walk and not run
I wanna skip and not fall
I wanna look at the horizon
And not see a building standing tall -
I wanna be the only one
For miles and miles
Except for maybe you
And your simple smile -
Oh it sounds good to me
Yes it sounds so good to me -
Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can
Into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
Closer to heaven above and
Closer to you"
Love ~ Kimberly

| Excitement in SoDak |
| 06.22.04 (9:28 pm) [edit] |
Today proved to be busy and boring at the same time. My mom woke me up at ten (soooo early - I'm a night owl and never go to bed before three) so we could continue our joint soccer mom duties. Between driving, we went to the mall and a doctor's appt. Okay, I know I said I needed a dress for the wedding - point being singular - but I got three. But they were all really cute, and who can ever have enough little black dresses? And yes, c-line, I know - objective: downsize. But look at the plus side - now I have enough dresses for like the entire chapter to wear to pref party! However, the problem is convincing dad either that three dresses were necessary, or that he just hasn't seen any of them before and they're actually old dresses that mysteriously reappeared from my closet. I've obviously had practice with similar situations in the past - the key is in eyelash batting, also a good flirting technique if used a little differently.
The rest of the day was spent either sleeping or watching TV at home, but with good reason. Little known fact, unless you've seen the scar: amidst a bunch of other crap, around Christmas of my senior year, I had back surgery. Nothing too serious, but trust me, you never want to have back surgery. Anyway, I had a check-up with the surgeon today after his nurse noticed something on my back at the lake and wanted to attempt to remove it (a few too many dirty monkeys). So I'm in a little pain and have become even more sloth-like. But woohoo for going back to work tomorrow! Not really, but maybe there will be some eye candy...
If ever you want to know what's on TV at any particular time of the day or night, call me, I'm sure I could give you three options for every hour. I'm such a TV junkie, but I think that I'm just trying to make up for a year at Rose with no social contact with the outside world - and my parents are equally as obsessed, so I blame it on them. I watched a special tonight with them on the top 100 movie songs of the century - it was surprisingly good and I totally love most of the songs.
Still in kind of a blah mood...half dreamy, half cynical. Weird, hard to explain...and I miss math. I realize most of you think I'm crazy but I would so much rather solve DEs than do the whole psychoanalyze/literary/po etry/self-discovery thing.

| 06.21.04 (9:23 pm) [edit] |
I've decided my life is increasingly more pathetic as the summer goes on - The DQ and my tan are really all that matters, but I didn't work today and it was cloudy.
Today I did my half babysitting duties - playing soccer mom and driving the kids to their various sports lessons since their actual babysitting was at work. They're cute kids and I haven't seen them in awhile, so it was all good. More of that for the rest of the week.
For those of you who don't know -
1. My parents are very republican, and very proud of it.
2. My dad loves picnics and food of any kind.
3. My mother and I hate picnics.
With that knowledge, we went to a republican picnic tonight - my parents were in heaven (mom's republicanness won out over the hatred of picnics). And my dad was in such a great mood, I get to go shopping tomorrow on the credit card. Mom and I need dresses for the wedding in Florida (gag me) - I don't want to go, but at least I'm getting a cute outfit out of it.
The pathetic-ness of my life - TV dates with Danna - we watch the Disney channel at the same time and talk about the shows online - yay Lizzie!
The boredom of SoDak is amazing - enough said.
Please keep in your prayers Mary Olinger, a dear friend of my mom's and the director of the Make-A-Wish Foundation of South Dakota, who was in a terrible car crash last night...and Bob Prescott, who will be in SoDak this weekend for field training.
Buenas Noches a todos ~ Kimberly

| Lucky!!! |
| 06.20.04 (9:56 pm) [edit] |
FYI - The DQ has a theme song - Lucky by B Spears :) It's me and Angel's (yes, me and the hoochie who also is totally crushing on Scott) song. How cuteness! We sing it all the time while we're working and then while we close, we play it on the jukebox. It's so much fun.
Today was totally lazy and relaxing...
church with the rents
breakfast with the fam
2 hour nap
US Open - poor Phil :( (watch the golf channel)
dinner
ice cream with Daddy
movie
So much fun! But the movie we watched was the saddest movie I've ever seen - The Cider House Rules. And not girly at all! I'm proud of myself, but it was soooo sad and way too many people died and the ending could have used a little work in the romance department.
And my romance department is still uneventful...I will have to try some new boy-stalking techniques wearing something from "Nick's Guide to Hotness."
More laziness and hopefully some tanning in store for tomorrow :)
Love yas ~ Kimberly
P.S. I totally heart my G's!

Actually, the subject pretty much explains it all - can it really be that hard to get a date? Whatev - if Scott doesn't want to ask me out, it's his loss - I'm a hottie :) Feel free to comment about my hotness level, but beware, I will delete unwanted comments...

Yeah - B Spears lyrics, and for those of you who know - why wasn't it me? Granted I'm a brunette, but still. Anyway, I found out I'm not babysitting! Woohoo! I have three whole days off and two paychecks - SHOPPING SPREE! I'm bored to death here in Sodak though, and missing my nightly convos with certain people...
A little TV and then bedtime - my days off don't start till Sunday and I need my beauty sleep to look my best for flirting - wait, I mean work ;)

| "Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you?" |
| 06.18.04 (12:06 pm) [edit] |
I am at work, at by far my most favorite job of the summer - dad's office. He offices with two other lawyers who are both out of the office until Monday, and the daytime secretary just left - I am filling in for the afternoon secretary. I answer the phone and fax things aka play online, read, cross-stitch, etc. Dad did find me a project of making a client database for him, but it requires me to be on his computer and he just doesn't like to give up his office for long periods of time, so I'm currently bored.
Last night's entry was depressing, but I'm way more cheery today - do you know that someone at work said I was too cheery? I mean, I'd had a moolatte and a lot of caffeinated fountain diet perfect, plus I'm normally cheery in general so the customers don't yell, but really, what's wrong with a little sunshine? And on that note, I like happy music too, and I've decided the happiest most poppy music was during middle school, when Britney and 'N Sync and the Backstreet Boys had their first CDs out, so I'm going to make myself a mix tape for my car, since it currently has no CD player, which is going to be way super fun - even though no one else who rides in my car ever will like it, except maybe c-line.
I decided I like the plot of West Side Story, but the musical is a little lacking in dance for me - yes, they dance a lot, but it wasn't what I was looking for exactly, so I'm not stealing so much from the movie, it'll just be inspired by it instead of an adaptation. And I fell in love with the Mambo scene, so I have a second guy/girl dance. Here is the song list so far:
1. Snappy dance/gang fight - West Side Story - boy dance
2. Crapshooter's Dance - Guys and Dolls - boy dance
3. The Shipoopi - The Music Man - guy/girl dance
4. Mambo - West Side Story - guy/girl dance
5. One (singular sensation) - A Chorus Line - girl dance (kickline)
I am severely lacking in girl dances - no ideas have really hit me, so I think we're just going to make a big deal out of the girl/guy numbers to make them feel important. And I'm assigning dance partners, which I'm sure will screw up some camp romances/flirting, but I'd rather not have anyone bust their nose on stage this year.
I want to do something fun tonight, but I don't know what yet...there's nothing to do at midnight in sufu...there's nothing to do ever, and my parents aren't going to the lake this weekend, so I have to be quiet at night.
More blogness later, unless I crash due to lack of sleep from being a work-a-holic.

I'm in a weird mood tonight...
I hate work, mostly because my last day off was June 8 and I won't have another day off until July 4. I am babysitting twice before then, for four days each, plus DQ, plus dad. And I tried to start choreographing today, only to become frustrated. Do you know how hard it's going to be to teach non-dancers broadway? Grrrr...
Other than that, I went out tonight after work with my coworkers and that was pretty fun, but just not the same as hanging out with my rose friends or sisters. I miss you all.
I wish my blog was deep and thought-provoking, but it's not - stop reading it and go work on your tan.

Today was just about as boring as yesterday. I worked from 11-3 (I got to leave two hours earlier than scheduled!), pretty much uneventfully, except for Matt dropping one of my cakes. It was fun though, because it was me, Matt, and Kim and that's always a good time. Plus, we filled Kim in on the hypothetical dating situation and she thinks it's a good idea. Then I got home, cross-stitched a little, took a nap, ate dinner, and watched a really awesome lifetime movie. For those of you who don't know, I love lifetime. Basically every show they have, but especially the movies. Then I talked to C-line - duh, we talk all the time - and chilled with Daddy for awhile. Now I'm blogging and trying to figure out what to do tomorrow until work at 7. I think choreographing would be a good idea, so I'll probably watch West Side Story all day and snap a lot while trying to dumb down and gangsterize the snappy dance for my brother. *sigh* I need a summer fling...if you know of any hot, available sodak boys, preferrably in cowboy hats, let me know...

My life really is pathetic - I slept till 12, ate breakfast, played piano, watched Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory with Mom and Jason and then went to work. *sigh* I'm bored...I'm running out of things to do - really a person can only tan, read, and cross-stich so much before they go crazy. So i taped some TV tonight and maybe that will keep me occupied tomorrow night, my one night off this week (yay day shifts!). Nothing else happening, I'm out.

| The DQ - episode 3 |
| 06.15.04 (9:13 pm) [edit] |
The entry was going to be...
Nothing too much new today because Scott is off work until Friday, but there was a small milestone - anyone not working on grill (aka me) is allowed to wear shorts to work. That's right baby, I'm going to use my sex appeal and show off some leg.
Then, the 7 o'clock shift came on and I learned that my worst fear had come true - Matt, unlike Kenny, does not understand the rules of girl talk...
Matt told Jess S, and Jess S told Stevie. Megan told Richie, but that's expected, they're sisters. However, basically the whole store now knows except the managers, Scott, and Angel. So we discussed it during a freakishly busy night while being short people because Stevie went home sick and decided on a plan - Matt is going to be subtle - not me and Danna subtle, but actually subtle - and tell Scott that I wouldn't be opposed to hanging out this summer while we're both home from school...so maybe something will actually happen and I can stop blogging about it and actually have a life! I'll keep you posted...

| The real blog entry for today |
| 06.14.04 (10:27 pm) [edit] |
Okay, I decided to make two entries, even though my life revolves around work, so it's kinda pointless.
You know your social life is reaching new levels of patheticness when you're excited about the prospect of going out with your fave coworkers after you all work and close baseball night...
However, I was social today! I went to see Shrek 2 with the Krista aka Soledad, which was totally super fun and I looked cute thanks to a little effort, even though teeny bopper and American Eagle: cutsie tube top, jean shorts, and pink flip flops (of course!) The outfit necessitates a new suit as soon as I get a paycheck. It was fun to chill with the KJ, who is mom's other adopted child - Krista, Kenny, and Kimberly - all K's! cept Jason, but he's prolly playing football in his sleep right now.
New obsession and an addiction worse than when I was a crack whore - Moolattes.
I miss my roomies, even though I talk to c-line daily...but what was that motto again? Slumber party withdrawl, anyone?
I feel like I should be deep or toolish like other people's blogs but the 'N Sync CD is preventing me.
Peace out homies -
Too much time with my lil bro makes me a wannabe gangsta - love and kisses to everyone ~ Kimberly

| The DQ - episode 2 |
| 06.14.04 (9:55 pm) [edit] |
It was a busy Sunday night at DQ, with Megan and Jess on drive, KT managing, Matt training Scott *sigh* on drive, and me and Angel up front. I was sad that I wasn't working with Megan, but Scott was up front for two hours with me before Angel got there and we were chatting it up a little. And the really sad thing is that I should hate the little hoochie mama for flirting it up with someone I totally had girl dibs on, but she's so fun to work with and actually really nice. So we were in the middle of creating a scheme to make more money while working at DQ - turning it into a coyote ugly DQ complete with a liquor liscence and us girls in cute little skirts dancing on the counters - when Angel suddenly says "like oh my gosh, YOU and scott should totally hook up." Note: Angel is three years younger than Scott and I. She followed that up with "cuz my interest in him is really just a fun fling type thing." So I was like "um, duh, Indiana? So is mine babe." So I rushed to the back to tell Megan, but Matt was there too so we let him in on the store love triangle gossip. The two of them then tried to create talking opportunities for me and Scott for the rest of the night, but to no avail, we were just too busy trying to close. And by trying to close, I mean Angel and I were singing Britney Spears songs on the jukebox. So really, nothing too exciting, but that's DQ for ya.
I need a theme song/lyrics/words...something. Ideas totally welcome in the comment section.

| The DQ - pilot |
| 06.13.04 (10:39 pm) [edit] |
Okay, so obviously what I do every night is check everyone else's blog, comment, and then post my own. And OMH - shout outs to all my Rose friends for the cuteness of their own blogs/comment sections - I miss ya'll so much :)
But that aside...I was talking to C-line on the phone tonight and because my life is so boring, we decided I need to relive it on the blog every night in a more exciting format. And one so fitting to my personality - The DQ (modeled after the oh so worshipped OC) is my new blog soap opera about my love life (or lack thereof) at the DQ so that I don't need to call C-line every night and ya'll have a clue what we're talking about at school this fall because I will be made fun of forever probably for my girliness and boy flirtatiousness/slut-ho level. So tonight I thought I'd introduce the characters so you can reference them if needed:
Jeff - owner, super nice
Deb - old owner, defines the term bitch
"old" will now refer to worked with before college
KT - old manager, still expects us to work like crazy
Jess T - new manager, social hour atmosphere
Kim - old daytime manager, love her to death
Matt - old coworker, sweetie, taken
Richie - old coworker, she's really fun
Megan - old cowork, Richie's sister, prolly best friend at DQ, knows about my crush on Scott
Scott - new, my grade, goes to USD, cutie, single!
Jess S - old coworker (that I trained) who is now on a power trip from being a shift leader
Angel - new, crushing on Scott too, kinda hoochie
Other new coworkers: Stevie, Autumn, Kelsey, the L twins, Jenna -- mostly ditzy blondes who have dated my brother
But obviously, what you can see is a potential love triangle developping between Angel, Scott, and I...watch for that in the next episode of...The DQ.
In real blog news, I work a lot. But I went to the lake for an overnight and put the boat in the water for the summer and layed out for awhile - killer tan.
Also, ppl keep asking about Princess of Pink - and I wasn't even the one who came up with that - total surprise, I know. But it was from a message from my awesome G, Kenny left to me being unhappy:
Kim82085: Two nights in a row of napping from 3ish to 8ish means a grumpy Kimberly Leave me a message to cheer me up...
Kenny RHIT: cheer up Princess of Pink
Kenny RHIT: and have a diet coke!
It was so cute - I couldn't resist. And PinkGlitter was already taken :( So it's late and I'm going to go drift off to sweet dreams of pink fairies or something...maybe boys in cowboy hats ;) Love yas ~ Kimberly

Okay, so I've been asked by way too many people to explain the concept of four jobs and what I've been doing this summer. The second one's easy - working. All the time. If I'm not working, I'm either sleeping or bored, so feel free to call, post a comment, update your blog, or just stop by so I can be entertained. But here's the job story...I had one, choreographing for my summer camp that takes place at my dad's alma mater USD (University of Sex and Drugs) in Vermillion (translate: nowhere) SoDak. But it's totally fun and no work yet since I haven't started choreographing - it's all safely tucked away in my head somewhere. But then I decided I needed another job for the summer so I found one, my mom found one, and my dad found one and I ended up working them all. 1. I went back to DQ - more on that later. 2. I am working as a secretary at my dad's office on fridays and for two weeks while each of the normal secretaries take vacations. 3. I am babysitting for random people mom knows while they go out of town without their children. It mostly works out, however it amounts to me being totally exhausted most of the time, but I'm not at Rose so I get a decent amount of sleep every night and if I'm lucky, a nap every day. Okay, back to DQ...it's weird to be back, good because we have a new owner who's not a bithch, but the people that work there now are all way young and immature, except for a couple "old" people that I worked with before and a certain nameless (note to c-line: we need to have a phone discussion on appropriate blog commenting) cutie that totally flirts with the hoochie little high school girls instead of ME!!! And let me tell you what, there is limited eye-candy through the drive-thru. So this summer is basically sucking totally, but there have been high points to make it better or look forward to...1. Phone calls with C-line and Danna like every day 2. Alpha, Kappa, and Omega(?) roomie love :) 3. An end of the summer road trip that will turn into a twelve hour fight over the radio, only to be solved by listening to "Music inspired by the OC" for the entire trip 4. Dawson's Creek season 3 comes out on June 29th, however I will be babysitting so I might not get to buy it on that exact day :( And I'm into lists now, I guess, but I'm not really sure how to format them prettily on the blog yet, I'll have to work on that. And I'm trying to multitask and watch a movie while I blog, but the only thing on is a weird old movie with a young Johnny Depp (so hott with two t's!) that is reminiscent of Dave and Kenny forcing me to sleep through Rocky Horror. Johnny Depp crys and everyone is singing and dancing - badly. Oh, and things I've learned while being at home include the suckiness of parents and the fact that football season is endless. Well, it's late and I'm tired because I worked two jobs today and I only have a twelve hour break between shifts to blog, sleep and eat, so goodnight all and miss you bunches ~ Kimberly P.S. I told my dad I needed to go blog and he thought I was moving in with a guy...? I do not understand my parents.
